no amount of "time"

 
 
 
    walking til the ankles bleed; miles for water and potential seeds; weighing possibilities as if it were a luxury
 
    truly; no amount of time is guaranteed, especially for tired hearts and worn out feet; or when there's no need to brush the teeth;
 
or without a wash for weeks; mouths are what you see when someone speaks; respectfully;
feeling like an aged old tree
 
depression with a tight grip squeeze; whole body like a cavity; defying laws of gravity; hardly, plugged into "reality" ....
